what is the likelihood tha the marlins will move lowell in the offseason and make m cab the regular third sacker??? it is his natural position, and he seems to do well there... just wondering... because if they move him to third, that makes my outfield choices that much easier to make for 2006..

99%. What they do with Lowell is a question mark, but Cabrera WILL be at 3rd.

He's a GOOD 3b?

3B is his "native" position.

Even if they don't move him to 3B next year, he will still be eligible to play 3B next year in Yahoo leagues.

So now what do I do with MCab and Wright as potential keepers for next season? Trade one for an equivalent star or keep them both? Problem is, my league counts defense and a 3B in the outfield could be devastating.....

Lowell has 2 years and 18 mil on his contract...after this grotesque season he's close to immoveable unless they swapped him for another bloated contract.
That said, Miggy will qualify at 3d and that's all that matters.

Keep both of them unless you can get something great. Both of those guys should be Top 5-10 players in the league in the coming years, its about as good a pair of keepers as you can have IMO.

you keep both of them... mcab is a top 5 player for the future and wright is a top 10 or so....... i believe the marlins would love to move lowell so that mcab could play 3rd with hermida in the OF,,, but lowells contract will make that move hard to make for sure....
